80% of the water your body ingests is absorbed through your colon.... if your bowel is full of harmful toxin-producing bacteria & yeast breeding in compacted fecal debris and solidified mucus... then those toxins are absorbed into the water then into your blood stream then into the other tissues of your body?

Dr. Bernard Jensen explains how to remove the harmful bacteria's breeding environment, and replace it with one that supports beneficial bacteria. This colonic enema, or "colema" process significantly reduces the probability that toxins from harmful bacteria will affect the health of your internal organs and tissues.

This book is recognized as the definitive work on the relationship of intestinal flora to tissue health, and has sold over 1 million copies. It has been credited with helping multitudes of people obtain relief from dozens of bowel and tissue-related diseases.

It Is a most Ideal way to turn such conditions around toward rejuvenation and well-being.ABOUT DR. JENSENBeginning his career as a chiropractor in 1929, Dr. Bernard Jensen soon turned to the art of nutrition in search of remedies for his own health problems. He traveled to over 50 countries, to study the lifestyles of the different cultures in an effort to understand the principles of long and healthy living. He visited Russia where he studied the long-lived people. The last man he met in Russia was 152 years of age. Dr. Jensen journeyed to New Zealand several times, stayed at Sri Aurobindo’s Ashram in India and visited Sai Baba, one of the masters of India. He met with the Dalai Lama and recently stayed with the King of Hunza Valley.

Many of the spas and nature cure sanitariums in Europe were visited. Many constructive ideas were brought back to develop the Hidden Valley Health Ranch in 1955. It was a place for his patients and guests to come and learn how to live a healthy life. Hidden Valley Health Ranch served as a retreat for people from all over the world. The Kneipp water baths from Worishofen, Germany were established; the organic garden provided 60% of the meals served; lectures and demonstrations were given and the summer classes became a main attraction. Doctor Jensen concluded that the long-lived people live a simple life, in a moderate temperature, eat unprocessed foods, no fried foods, little meat, live a serene, contented life, maintain good posture and consistently live close to where the soil is black. Doctor Jensen believes humanity needs a formula for living successfully, healthfully and peacefully. He combines the elements of the physical, mental and spiritual in teaching people how to live..Dr. Bernard Jensen died 25 Feb 2001, at the age of 93._______________________________________________________________________________Read other 3 books online:

Ventura, CA 93001Dr. Bernard JensenAre you confused about health?It seems the more books you read and the more people you listen to about health, the more confused you get. One author tells you to eat this and not that. The next author tells not to eat that food but to eat what the first author told you not to eat.

Health should be a science. There shouldn't be so many conflicting views. Everyone likes to theorize about health, and most of them sound very convincing. It's difficult to distinguish what's valid and what's not. Our advice would be to stay away from theories. You don't want to be experimenting with your own health. You don't want to find out a few years later that the author was wrong in his assumptions.

As we know, practical knowledge is much more valid than theoretical knowledge. So, if you want to know the practical way to live a long, happy and healthy life, then you must learn it from people who live it. What you should be doing instead of listening to people's theories is finding out what the old and healthy people throughout the world are doing.

The best examples of health and longevity are people like Li Chung Yun (256 years old) of China, Shirali Mislimov (168 years old), and Shirin Gasanov (153 years old) of Russia, and Peter Martin (185 years old) of Hungary.

Dr. Bernard Jensen did just that. He spent over 65 years researching and interviewing the world's oldest people. He traveled to over 60 different countries in seeking out the world's health secrets.

The information found in Dr. Jensen's books is invaluable. Listed below are books and videos that we recommend highly. They should be part of everyone's library.

A practical guide to removing toxins from the bodyBy Ingri CasselWe are presently being exposed to thousands of toxic compounds in the form of inorganic chemicals and toxic metals. As mentioned in previous columns, these substances are everywhere: The air we breathe, the foods we eat, the water we drink and bathe in, as well as drugs, vaccines, cleaning products, paints, solvents, glues, herbicides, pesticides and fertilizers.Due to this constant exposure, our bodies are now storing hundreds of these toxic metals and chemicals. Studies indicate that we have between 400 and 800 toxic metal and chemical residues stored in our bodies. They accumulate in our fat cells, in our major organs such as the liver, kidneys and brain; in our glands such as the thyroid and adrenals; and throughout our central nervous system.For some revealing chemical facts go to www.evenbetternow.com/index.aspThere are 34,000 pesticides and herbicides registered with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as well as 65,000 other chemicals. Over one-fourth of the 4 billion pounds of pesticides used in the world annually are used in the United States. Each year, 10,000 chemicals are being synthesized by industry and added to the over 1 million already in existence.Environmental toxins are chemical toxins that come into our bodies via air, water, food or direct contact with the skin. Virtually all of us are now in a state of toxic overload from environmental toxins. Small toxic exposures each day (from common sources such as breakfast cereal, toothpaste, shampoo, soap, perfume, deodorant, hair dye, newspapers, magazines, exhaust fumes, carpets, new mattresses, dry cleaning or a newly-painted bedroom) will increasingly exceed and even incapacitate our body’s ability to detoxify. This causes these chemicals to accumulate to levels that will make us sick.Most people make little effort to avoid toxins because officially-established tolerances presume that toxin levels are within safe limits. Unless we make deliberate choices to avoid or minimize toxic exposures, we are constantly eating foods with trace toxins, drinking water with trace toxins, using personal products with trace toxins and breathing toxic air. By the end of each day, these toxic contaminants often reach a substantial cumulative total. EPA scientists found that the total toxic residues in our daily diet can exceed 500 percent of the recommended daily maximum—even if each individual exposure is within "safe" limits!Most pesticides, herbicides and fungicides accumulate in fatty tissues and tend to settle in the bones. Fluoride builds up in the brain, thyroid and bones. Once in these storage sites, they can remain for decades or even a lifetime. Several studies have shown that the average person—no matter where that person lives (even in the Arctic regions)—has 40 to 75 organic chemical residues located in fat tissue—including the breast tissue in women.The accumulation of these toxic chemicals and metals results in our body not being able to assimilate and utilize essential minerals such as iron, calcium and magnesium. This causes enzyme dysfunction, nutritional deficiencies, hormonal imbalances, neurological disorders, damage to brain chemistry, and can even lead to auto-immune disorders, cancer, and other debilitating chronic conditions.In order to lessen the body’s burden of toxins, we can consciously attempt to minimize exposures by choices we make in eating, drinking and by avoiding chemical exposures wherever possible. We can also do a few simple, inexpensive things to help remove toxins from our tissues.The importance of alkalizing body pHPurchasing pH strips or sticks for measuring the body’s acid/alkaline balance is one of the most effective tools in determining our overall state of health as well as our body’s ability to flush out the chemicals and metals innundating us daily. The body’s oxygen saturation level is determined by its overall pH. The body must be slightly alkaline for its cells to be properly oxygenated. The pH scale goes from zero to 14 with zero being purely acid, 14 being purely alkaline and 7 being "neutral" pH.Without exception, people who have cancer, auto-immune diseases, or heavy metal and chemical poisoning also have an overall body pH below 7.0, which means that their cells are not being properly oxygenated, leading to an accumulation of toxins. The ideal body pH is 7.4 but people who are actively using naturopathic principles in detoxifying try to keep their pH a bit more alkaline for a period of time since cancer cells cannot survive in a body with a pH of 8.0.Bentonite ClayOne of the most effective and inexpensive means of pulling all kinds of chemicals and heavy metals out of the body is through clay baths. Although we covered this topic extensively in "Clay: The Healing Underground" (The IO, Back to Basics, February, 2005), there are many aspects of clay and bentonite clay in particular that deserve repeating:Bentonite comes in a variety of "flavors." You can buy an industrial bentonite at the feed store for about $6 for a 50-pound bag. This is usually sodium montmorillonite. This is a low-quality bentonite used for ponds, sealing wells, making paper, cat litter and so on. Sodium bentonite clay swells, sometimes up to 18 times its dry size when it becomes wet. I keep a bag of this on hand for emergencies.What do I mean by emergencies? This material is used to patch dams. If you cut your leg with a chainsaw, powdered bentonite will help stop the bleeding.The best clay for detoxification is calcium montmorillonite. It is also known as "living clay," for it principally consists of minerals that enhance the production of enzymes in all living organisms. It swells zero to little, is a source of highly-absorbable minerals and absorbs radiation. Smart farmers feed it to their livestock. It treats several veterinary diseases, animals gain more weight on less feed and production skyrockets.AscorbatesVitamin C is the most common "vitamin" deficiency seen today since our ability to neutralize the effects of pollutants depends upon the daily intake of vitamin C (or buffered mineral ascorbates) in an assimilable form. Ascorbates are also very effective detoxifiers of heavy metals and chemical poisons. Ascorbates have detoxifying effects on lead, mercury, carbon monoxide, sulfur dioxide, various carcinogens, bacterial toxins and poisons; and it protects us from benzene exposure. Only people who eat an all raw foods diet of freshly picked and naturally ripened fruits and vegetables as well as sprouted seeds and grains will be giving their bodies the amount of vitamin C their bodies need daily. If you live in a city, your body’s daily vitamin C requirements may be as much as 10 grams a day. (Make sure the vitamin C you use for supplementation IS CERTIFIED NON GMO. If the container does not contain that certification DO NOT BUY IT.)MineralsMost people today are deficient in magnesium. The importance of magnesium cannot be overstated since it is a critical element in over 325 biochemical reactions in the human body. Since it is magnesium that controls the fate of potassium and calcium in the body, if magnesium is insufficient, potassium and calcium will be lost in the urine and calcium will be deposited in the soft tissues (kidneys, arteries, joints, brain, etc.)Magnesium protects the cells from absorbing aluminum, mercury, lead, cadmium, beryllium and nickel. Evidence is mounting that low levels of magnesium contribute to the heavy metal deposition in the brain that precedes Parkinson’s, multiple sclerosis and Alzheimer’s. Researchers have found that children with both learning disabilities and heavy metal toxicity have low total body magnesium.So how much magnesium is needed for optimal health and to balance the calcium, phosphorus and potassium intakes? Dr. Emmanuel Cheraskin found through clinical experience nearly 30 years ago that 400 mg. daily for a 150-pound adult is ideal. However, today we are experiencing more problems associated with magnesium deficiency so it is best to evaluate your lifestyle to determine whether you are depleting magnesium from your body by drinking coffee, alcohol, soda pop, refined carbohydrates, excessive sodium and/or high levels of calcium intake (which blocks magesium absorption).We have found that when the body receives the proper balance of bio-available minerals, these same minerals not only protect the body from heavy metals, aluminum and chemical exposure, but also have the ability to displace and remove from the body these same toxins the body has been storing. This is likely the reason that "living clay" taken both internally and externally is so successful in rapidly removing these toxins from the body.HerbsThere are numerous plants God has given us that aid in detoxification while feeding various organ systems. It is important to remember that the liver is the main organ of detoxification and needs to be supported when undergoing any regimen to remove heavy metals and chemicals from the body (see "Your Liver – The body’s chemical factory and detoxifier," The IO, Back to Basics, March, 2007).Algin derived from seaweeds such as kelp, dulse and algaes such as chlorella provide protection from many of today’s pollutants. Canadian researchers have found that algin can prevent living tissue from absorbing radioactive materials, including strontium-90, barium, mercury, aluminum, tin, cadmium, zinc and manganese. Strontium-90 is so dangerous because it has an affinity for calcium and will accumulate in food substances that are high in calcium such as milk and green leafy vegetables. Such contaminated calcium carries strontium-90 directly to the bones where it damages bone marrow. Kelp has been shown to block strontium-90 from being absorbed by the body. Kelp particles (sodium alginates) strip the metal ions from the calcium molecule forming insoluable salts that are then eliminated from the body (Source: The Scientific Validation of Herbal Medicine, by Daniel B. Mowrey, 1986, p. 88).Dr. John R. Christopher’s "heavy mineral formula" has helped thousands recover from stored pharmaceutical drugs and environmental pollutants. It contains bugleweed, yellow dock and lobelia. In a recent version of this formula, cilantro has been added. The School of Natural Healing’s protocol is to take this formula with chaparral, an extremely potent blood purifier. In addition, it is recommended that you bathe every other day adding 1 to 3 pounds of Epsom salts in a bath of of hot water. This bathing routine is recommended for three weeks, then resting a week before resuming the bathing routine, while continuing to take the "heavy mineral formula" with the chaparral the entire time (see "Chaparral: Nature’s Detergent for the Body," The IO, Back to Basics, August, 2000).The following information was compiled by Dr. Thomas Stearns Lee, NMD of www.naturodoc.com:Cilantro—also known as coriander or Chinese parsley—has been proven to chelate toxic metals from our bodies in a relatively short period of time.Combined with the benefits of the other ingredients, the following recipe for Cilantro Chelation Pesto is a powerful tissue cleanser. It is easy to make, and also really tasty. It’s delicious on toast, baked potatoes, and pasta.Two teaspoons of this cilantro pesto daily for three weeks is purportedly enough to increase the urinary excretion of mercury, lead, and aluminum, thus effectively removing these toxic metals from our bodies. Consider doing this cleanse for three weeks at least once a year.Cilantro Chelation Pesto• 4 cloves garlic• 1/3 cup Brazil nuts (selenium source)• 1/3 cup sunflower seeds(cysteine source)• 1/3 cup pumpkin seeds (zinc,magnsium sources)• 2 cups packed fresh cilantro(coriander, Chinese parsley)(Vitamin A source)• 2/3 cup flaxseed oil• 4 tablespoons lemon juice(Vitamin C source)• 2 tsp. Dulse powder• Bragg’s Liquid Aminos™Process the cilantro and flaxseed oil in a blender until the cilantro is chopped. Add the garlic, nuts, and seeds, dulse and lemon juice and mix until the mixture is finely blended into a paste. Add a squirt of Bragg’s Liquid Aminos to taste and blend again. Store in dark glass jars if possible. It freezes well, so purchase cilantro in season and fill enough jars to last through the year.One person suffering from high blood pressure due to mercury poisoning had her blood pressure return to normal after eating 2 teaspoons of this pesto daily for only a week. So whether you need to detoxify heavy metals from your body or just wish to use it as a preventative measure, 2 teaspoons a day is all you need to take.According to our holistic dentist, Italian parsley has the same effect as cilantro in removing mercury from the body.SummaryAfter reviewing the evidence proving that poisoning from aluminum, heavy-metals, and hundreds of chemicals is rampant, it is clear that, for self-preservation, we must incorporate a lifestyle change that involves regular cleansing rituals and a living foods diet. We have shown that environmental pollutants are a major cause of hormonal imbalances, cancer, thyroid problems, neurological disturbances, learning disabilities, memory loss, depression, food allergies, and parasites. The value of colon and kidney cleansing, and liver flushes hasn’t been discussed enough. If we are going to do more than survive the coming changes, becoming a conscious consumer and gardener now will initiate the reverse of the poisoning and start the healing our troubled planet.
